Looks like someone has been staring at Van Gogh’s The Starry Night a little too long. The hues and tonality of Prada’s runway collection is remarkably similar to those of Van Gogh’s magnum opus versus the animated bacchanal extravaganza that’s currently on view on the Prada website. Nevertheless, each interpretation plays into […]
Like many of you, I read other handbag blogs too. We all have different slants or point of views, even when it comes to critiquing the same bag, and, there seems to be an equal number of those who do not like the recurring colorblocking theme that Marc Jacobs has employed of late to his […]

Although a throwback of a few decades, these still never go out of style for they are the ambassadors of a certain panache/look thus becoming a key player by just being present. Even without the wearer, these breathe all by themselves, exhaling confidence and inhaling esteem. They trot, aware that, but not […]
I’ve been waiting for this. I’m not sure if they are in stores yet, but clothes and accessories by Milla Jovovich and Carmen Hawk are ‘live’ and ready to rock on Target.com. Here are some items that I plan to buy asap. Unassuming flirty girlish style is synonymous with the advent of Spring […]
One makes you a fan. Having two makes you a superfan. But, three, ah, three, makes you a collector. Okay, here’s my deal. I am a big fan of Yves Saint Laurent. Ever since my mother dabbed on that Rive Gauche perfume back in the 1970s, I have had an infatuation […]
Are you a bit tired of seeing the same old bags online. Albeit cute, sometimes fierce, but routine exposure makes me yearn for something different. More stimuli, please. So, then I saw the new Spring line from Alexis Hudson. Have you had a chance to check them out? Outrageously chic. […]
What’s more lovely than going into a shop, and finding ALL your needs catered to in one landing. Thank you, Mulberry, for your varied yet characteristic designs, such as the Maxi Mabel that can take me from a morning of running about with notebooks, scarves, and a plastic ziplock full of snacks/food. Thank you […]
Nothing short of hyperbolic, Lisa Hazelwood’s website, vintageskins.com, is a plus-perfect collection of only vintage and antique exotic skin items. Lovely, artful purses, mostly alligator and crocodile, she also has sections dedicated to lizard and snakeskin and for lesser known such as ostrich, turtle, zebra, even frog. All bags are […]
My first impression? “Too cute!” I remember seeing the Turnlock Dot on the Marc Jacobs website, and I couldn’t wait until it was ready to retail. Well, my wait is over, as it and a few other fun yet suave options are available via eLuxury. I don’t think I have to […]
The weather has been so wonderfully temperate here in So. Cal. that we decided to do a little weekend getaway not far from us to Santa Barbara. Picturesque college town meets No. Cal. coastline beauty, which means living outdoors for you who are athletically inclined and shopping for others, like me. It […]
Lately, I find it a bit hard to part with funds. I have, in the past, put out over $1000 for a bag or two, but, to be honest, I have found that my comfort level is around $750. So, while going a-hunting over the web, I noticed that many designers, big and not-so-big, […]
